Coffee connoisseurs that are looking to be able to control the grind of their favourite coffee beans with a little more precision. Might be interested in a new coffee grinder that has been launched over on the Kickstarter crowdfunding website this week in the form of the Hand Ground.

The Hand Ground coffee bean grinder has been developed by thousands of coffee enthusiasts around the world to produce the perfect grind, allowing users to select between 20 courseness levels. Watch the video below to learn more about this precision coffee grinder and how it could aid your barista skills.

The Hand Ground grinder project was looking to raise $35,000 in pledges to make the jump into manufacture, but with 20 days still remaining on the campaign the project has already raised over $60,000 cementing its jump into production. Features of the Hand Ground include :
